A case of the "Moooonday's?" I think not....

Typically, on Monday's, I am a little quiet. It takes me a little bit to get going at work and to move on from the weekend. But today- there are a few events that are allowing me to get through today- smiling and actually liking this Monday. Those events are:

1. The Bachelor: London Calling is on! (8pm CST)
2. The Hills is an HOUR long episode tonight! (9pm CST)
and last but not least....
3. All of my laundry, except for the whites, is folded- so I don't have much housework to do when I get home...just dinner and maybe arranging the pillows on the couch.

On another note, I got an email from a friend today and in that email was a story of a man who lived his life by "choosing" to be positive. It was a touching story and it really made me think- each day I wake up, I have a choice. I can either choose to be in a good mood or I can choose to be in a bad mood. The Bible verse in the email has stuck with me today:

"Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:24

You have a choice- wake up and be happy, or wake up and be blue. I am going to try to make the "happy" choice in the mornings. Remember Randy Pausch? He is waking up happy to be alive. Happy to spend one more day with his wife and kids. One more day that he gets to see the world evolve. One more day to be an inspiration to strangers in our universe.

Bobby McFarin said it best in his 1980's hit, "Don't worry, be happy."
